"Property is promising from the outside, but was really really dated inside. We didn’t get a chance to use the pools, but there were several. There was also a tennis court and an on site restaurant. Rooms and hallway could use an update. "

"Our room was decades past renovation date with wall paper dating from the 70’s. There was a line of dirt/dust on the floor around the walls and fittings where the vacuum cleaner hadn’t reached. The door handle with swiped card reader was loose as was the knob on the wardrobe and appeared to have been this way for years. The room smelt a little damp but the a/c was quiet and worked well. Bathroom was clean though mould around the shower and the silicone was leaking enough for a large puddle to...

"A lovely hotel in a fantastic location on the lake. Very clean and the comfiest beds and pillows since we’ve started touring NZ. Reception team were super friendly and helpful. Would recommend highly if staying in Taupo. "

"As this is my 5th stay at the Turangi Leisure Lodge, I have enjoyed every visit. The Comfort room is really spacious for a family of four. I love my bed — the pillow and mattress are so comfy. Overall, it was a very relaxing stay. I look forward to my next visit with my family."

So much fun for the kids

"Stayed for just one night with our kids aged 8 & 10 in a self-contained cabin right across from the playground with the trampoline, which was awesome. Just a few steps away was the giant bouncing pillow which the kids loved. The cabin was comfortable enough, though you can definitely see the wear and tear from over the years. It was great being able to walk to the spa/water park area, though given how small they are and that they're under renovation (1 pool and 1 of the hydroslides were closed), I feel like paying overnight guests should be able to go for free or get a larger discount. Overall we enjoyed our stay but there are definitely things that could be updated/improved on the property in future."
